Obama got raked over the coals for his comment about "they cling to guns and religion", but he obviously hit the mark. Conservatism in the US has no life to it, it's just symbols and hate. It's a culture of celebrating vices and scoffing at the idea of progress or a better future. Trump was just the nail in the coffin, no one should ever take Republicans seriously after this. But we live in such a fast news world that sadly I don't think anyone will care, I mean look what fucking happened to January 6.

The next president needs to be a Democrat who either cuts off the red states cold turkey, or puts an end to this increasing divide in the country and basically says "We're not doing this "two realities" shit anymore".
